    Limited Usefulness

    Has really limited usefulness since there are many features missing. The videos are not time stamped, it will only record short clips and there is a minimum cool-down of 10 seconds between each recording. It's okay as an entry camera, but because of the recording cool-down, it misses _a lot_ of activity and isn't useful for continuous area monitoring.

    You get what you pay for with this. Bare minimum w/o subscription but motion detection is good for inside the house. If you get these, I highly recommend the “24/7” recording.

    • Brand response from Amazon Devices Customer Support
      Posted .

      Hello JamesA! Thank you so much for providing feedback and a review on your experience with your Blink Mini camera! I am glad that you like the quality of the video. Most smart security cameras from most brands do require a subscription typically in order to utilize cloud storage for the device to record videos for later viewing. We keep the cost of this camera extremely competitive to maintain the value it offers while keeping the subscription optional for people who want to take advantage of this as well as additional premium features that come along with the subscription. Blink does sell a Sync Module that you could use with a USB flash drive (sold separately) in order to be able to store videos locally and not require the subscription for viewing recorded events. Thank you again for your valued feedback as we are always trying to improve upon our products and services for our customers. I hope you have a terrific day! AmazonDevices

    Bought these for my kids with the Echo Show 8 so they can all see their dogs while away and away at work. They love it. Love that you can also talk through the mic. wish the camera was blue tooth though.

    There is a slight lag in the live view. Picture quality is just ok. It will be good to monitor indoor activities only. Since I got it for a deal I am keeping it.

    Nice little camera. Can use it to watch areas of the house while I’m away or check in on the pets and kids. Motion sensitivity seems to be good and can literally be placed anywhere but outside.
